The forewings are whitish ochreous with a basal group of five rather large blackish dots: one median near the base, one subdorsal near the base, one beneath the costa at one-fourth, one below this beneath the fold, and one in the disc slightly beyond these. The hindwings are pale ochreous grey.^[2]
